Podcasts about Cooley

On podcast 366, we had an incredible conversation with longtime archery expert Chuck Cooley. The response to that first podcast was so amazing that I wanted to sit down again with Chuck to go even deeper into what we can do for better clarity with archery eyesight. Chuck opens my eyes to a new approach to peep sight sizing and front hunting sight sizing. This is a must-listen for any archer because, at some point, you will need this information just like I have.

Detroit's only PGA Tour stop is ending, a landmark Detroit high school is coming down, and the Detroit River is getting a major cleanup — plus, we ask the question: Would you actually swim in it? In this episode, we break down the coming opening of the Gordie Howe International Bridge and why its freeway connections and pedestrian path matter for trade, traffic, and everyday Detroiters.  We get into Rocket Companies ending its Rocket Mortgage Classic sponsorship after 2026, what that means for Detroit Golf Club, tourism, and the city's national image. Then we tackle the demolition of historic Cooley High, the plan for a new state-funded athletic complex, and the bigger fight over whether Detroit is really "full" — or if the city needs more people, more housing, and more creative land use. Finally, they talk EPA and EGLE's $10 million plan to pull toxic sediment from the Detroit River near Harbortown and Belle Isle, and ask listeners: are you Team Yes or No on swimming in the river?

In this episode of Lab Rats to Unicorns, John Flavin sits down with Heather Turner, CEO of LB Pharmaceuticals, a late-stage clinical biotechnology company developing differentiated therapies for patients with serious psychiatric and neurological disorders. Heather's path into biotech was anything but traditional. Trained as an attorney, she began her career advising startup companies at Cooley before spending more than two decades helping build and scale life sciences companies through financings, strategic partnerships, and major transactions. Along the way, she developed a unique perspective on leadership, risk management, and company building—eventually transitioning from legal leadership roles into the CEO seat. The conversation explores Heather's journey from lawyer to biotech executive, the lessons learned leading Carmot Therapeutics through a $3.1 billion acquisition by Roche, and the challenges of raising capital in one of biotech's most difficult financing environments. She also shares how LB Pharmaceuticals successfully completed a public offering to advance its lead program, LB-102, a potential new treatment for schizophrenia, bipolar depression, and major depressive disorder. At its core, this episode is about leadership in uncertainty—how great companies are built through preparation, resilience, humility, and a relentless focus on patients. Heather offers valuable insights on scaling organizations, building high-performing teams, navigating risk, and creating opportunities for the next generation of biotech leaders.

From sketching fashion designs as a kid to leading complex M&A and private equity deals, Sara Mostafa shares what separates true dealmaking attorneys from ordinary transactional lawyers, why minority investment deals are like marriages with prenups, and what founders should understand before bringing in growth capital. In this episode of the DealQuest Podcast, host Corey Kupfer sits down with Sara Mostafa, the newest partner at Kupfer. Sara has spent more than two decades representing private companies and entrepreneurs across M&A, financing, private equity, governance, employment, real estate, and outside general counsel matters. Like Corey, she came out of big law and built a relationship-first practice that supports clients from inception through exit. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: In this episode, Sara explains what separates a true dealmaking attorney from an ordinary transactional lawyer, why minority investment deals require “eyes wide open,” and how experienced attorneys balance legal risk against business upside without over-lawyering. She also discusses why AI-related transactions are dominating parts of the California M&A market, why dental and medical practices are commanding strong multiples, what the 2008 recession taught her about resilience and pivoting, and how long-term client relationships often evolve into serving the next generation of entrepreneurs. GUEST'S JOURNEY: Sara originally wanted to be a fashion designer, inspired by her aunt and her childhood love of sketching clothes. While studying at the University of Pennsylvania, she unexpectedly completed her degree requirements early and took a paralegal role at Drinker Biddle & Reath in Philadelphia, which inspired her to pursue law school. She began her legal career at Cooley in San Diego, working on biotech M&A deals before deciding big law was not the long-term fit she wanted. During the 2008 Great Recession, she pivoted to immigration law and nonprofit work in Hawaii before returning full-time to business transactions. She remains licensed in both California and Hawaii. THE DESIGNER DEALMAKER: Outside of law, Sara continues to pursue creative work. Last year she bought a sewing machine and now spends much of her free time designing and making clothes, including garments she is exhibiting at the San Diego County Fair. Like others at Kupfer, she believes building a successful legal career does not require abandoning personal passions or entrepreneurial pursuits. KEY INSIGHTS: A true dealmaking attorney focuses on helping both sides move forward rather than over-lawyering every issue. Business-mindedness, perspective, and the ability to negotiate practical middle ground matter as much as technical legal skill. Minority investment deals can dramatically change how founders operate. Investors often require approval rights over major decisions and expect a future exit, which means founders need to fully understand both the growth opportunity and the downside risk. Sara believes lawyers must balance risk against opportunity. Businesses cannot grow without taking risks, and experienced attorneys help clients evaluate likelihood and impact rather than simply redlining every possible issue. She also explains that curiosity and adaptability matter more than narrow industry specialization in most transactional work. Over her career, she has represented clients across industries ranging from restaurants and fitness centers to technology, healthcare, entertainment, and construction. Perfect for founders considering outside capital, business owners planning an exit, and entrepreneurs evaluating whether their attorney is truly helping get deals done or simply executing documents.

Are you living your life based on who you truly are, or are you executing a performance for the world around you? In this episode, we dive deep into human behavior, identity, and the power of individual perception with sociology professor, actor, and storyteller Akello Stone.  We break down core sociological and psychological barriers that disconnect us from our intuition and alignment. From exploring Erving Goffman's Front Stage vs. Back Stage personas to understanding Cooley's Looking Glass Self, Akello reveals how tracking other people's expectations drains our psychic energy and distorts our reality. We also challenge why memory is highly unreliable through fascinating real-world perception experiments and discuss how to completely depersonalize rejection to unlock profound inner peace and long-term contentment.  Whether you identify as a "multipotentialite" trying to balance multiple passions or a truth seeker trying to navigate a conforming world, this conversation offers actionable mindset shifts to help you steer your own perception and reconnect with your intuitive flow.  What You Will Learn In This Episode: • Embracing the Multipotentialite Life: Why having diverse interests isn't a failure, but a powerful pathway to self-expression.  • The Shaved Head Experiment: How altering your physical presentation alters subconscious public archetypes and projections.  • Cooley's Looking Glass Self: Navigating the psychological mirror of how you think others perceive you.  • Perception vs. Reality: Why multiple eyewitnesses see completely different things (The UFO Desert Experiment).  • Front Stage vs. Back Stage Personas: Recognizing the performance masks we wear before stepping behind the curtain.  • Overcoming Rejection Sensitivity: Understanding "reciprocal sexuality" and how to detach your self-esteem from outside validation.  Connect with Akello Stone: Website: www.akellostone.com Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/akellostone Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/akellostone Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2BTqchb4XQIPkyvtDLcrXX Connect with Doug Beitz: Email: info@dougbeitz.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dougbeitz/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dougbeitz/ Website: https://buymeacoffee.com/dougbeitz Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6mQ258nugC3lyw3SpvYuoK?si=7cec409527d34438 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/intuitive-conversations-with-doug/id1593172364 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/doug-beitz-472a4b338/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dougbeitz178

The numbers are staggering. The “magnificent seven” Big Tech companies are expected to have combined capital spending of about $800 billion this year. Data centres' electricity demand is soaring, and hundreds of billions of dollars more are being mobilised to invest in power infrastructure to meet that demand. In this special episode, recorded at the ACORE Finance Forum in New York, host Ed Crooks speaks with five guests at the heart of the revolution in energy finance: bankers, a deal lawyer, a data centre operator and a head of policy. James Wright, Managing Director and Head of US Corporate Banking at CIBC Capital Markets, explains the connection between power, data centres and AI with an analogy borrowed from Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. Think of AI as a layer cake, with power as the base, data centre infrastructure above it, then hardware, then AI models, and the applications as the icing on top. For banks like CIBC, it is those bottom two layers that matter most. James explains how power developers and data centre builders are increasingly converging. Gas, solar and battery storage are driving the bulk of activity in new power generation, though gas turbine supply chains remain severely stretched. “Powered land” projects, created as sites to attract data centre developers, are a popular idea at the moment. But many of them are highly speculative. James estimates that for every twenty conversations, perhaps a couple result in a financeable transaction. Another hot topic is of behind-the-meter generation and co-located power. James sees it happening, but only at the margin. Grid connections are still the ultimate goal.  Adam Altenhofen, Senior Vice President for Impact Finance at US Bank, brings a different perspective on energy finance. US Bank has deployed more than $33 billion in renewable energy since 2008, primarily through the tax credit programmes for solar, wind and battery storage. The wind and solar tax credits are winding down, but projects that start construction before 4 July this year can still be placed in service through to the end of 2030. The storage tax credit was preserved through to 2036. Behind-the-meter generation, Adam argues, presents a fundamental challenge to the project finance model. If the load disappears, so does the revenue. And unlike for a grid-connected project, there will be no readily available alternative revenue streams to fall back on. Guarantees covering the full duration of the power supply contract are the floor, not the ceiling, for what lenders would need to get comfortable, Adam says.  Mona Dajani, Global Co-Chair of Infrastructure, Energy and Real Estate at the law firm Cooley, sees something structural changing. Hyperscalers are now behaving like utilities, she says. They assess data centre locations based on access to power, reliability and duration of supply. Meanwhile, some utilities are becoming more like infrastructure platforms, building unregulated arms and investing in new technologies to serve growing demand. A cultural gulf used to separate the tech and energy industries. But as they have come to understand their mutual interdependence over the past few years, more constructive collaborations have emerged. Jon Edwards, Executive Vice President and Head of Capital Markets at the data centre developer Switch, offers the operator's perspective. Switch currently consumes roughly one third of Nevada's total power supply and operates at 100% green power. Jon explains how the company decoupled from the utility grid for generation purposes back in 2015, buying its own generation while still using the utility for transmission and distribution, and how that model helped reduce Nevada consumer electricity prices by double digits in 2025. He is another sceptic about behind-the-meter power: it is useful as a bridge in some circumstances, but grid-connected utility power remains the primary and preferred solution for serious, long-duration data centre operations. On the financing side, Jon discusses Switch's recent $2.6 billion letter of credit facility, designed to give utilities the financial certainty they need to invest in new infrastructure, knowing they can be confident the data centre load will be there.  The episode closes with Lesley Hunter, Senior Vice President for Policy at ACORE, who sets the policy backdrop against which all of this activity is playing out. ACORE's latest investor survey makes for sobering reading: 69% of capital providers who replied to the survey said they thought the US industry had in the past year lost attractiveness compared to clean energy sectors in other countries. The same proportion, 69%, expect a further relative decline over the next three years. Lesley identifies two main pain points: the still-unresolved foreign entity of concern rules (FEOC) for tax credit eligibility, and the Department of Defense slow-walking agreements needed for wind development that has held up more than 160 projects. Her message for policy-makers is that regulatory stability is vital. “The core ask of the industry right now is to ensure that players have the rules of the road,” she says. “That those rules won't change mid-stream, and they are able to deploy capital, and trust the federal government when making these long-term investments in US infrastructure.”  Follow the show wherever you're listening so you don't miss an episode.

Each week, our panelists discuss their favorite stories from the week's news in legal technology. This week's topics:  00:00 Panelist introductions 3:16 Legal tech company Legora announces global ad campaign featuring actor Jude Law (Selected by Victor Li) Victor introduces the episode's first major story, using it as a "big news" kickoff. The panel discusses Legora's decision to use a major Hollywood actor in its marketing and what that signals about the maturation and competitiveness of the legal tech market. 15:44 Legal Tech Funding: 2026 Is on Track to Outpace 2025 (Selected by Stephanie Wilkins) Victor pivots directly to Stephanie, who outlines how 2026 funding is trending ahead of 2025, with outsized rounds concentrating capital among a small group of leading companies and reshaping the competitive landscape. 26:27 Inside an "AI-Native Law Firm" Started by Cooley, Fenwick and Thomson Reuters Veterans (Selected by Rhys Dipshan) Victor hands off to Rhys, who describes a new AI-native firm built by industry veterans. The discussion focuses on what "AI-native" actually means in practice and whether this model represents a fundamental shift in law firm structure. 40:44 Claude Legal Is Here, and It's Worth a Closer Look (Selected by Niki Black) Victor introduces Niki's segment on Claude Legal. She walks through its capabilities and potential impact, emphasizing how it fits into legal research workflows and enhances analytical depth. 50:59 Lawsuits are and will proliferate against LLM providers based on potential product liability theories (Selected by Stephen Embry) Victor transitions to Stephen, who explains how traditional product liability theories could apply to AI systems, predicting an increase in litigation as reliance on LLMs grows. 57:09 The latest AI hallucination involved zero AI (Selected by Joe Patrice) Victor closes with Joe's story, a humorous but pointed example of a so-called "AI hallucination" that had nothing to do with AI, illustrating how the term is often misused.

All marketers have to find the balance between subjective feelings and objective metrics, and Cooley's Matt Lieberman is no exception. As the elite law firm's Chief Marketing and Business Development Officer, and the former CMO of PwC, Matt says the professional services industry comes with unique challenges and high stakes. That means he sometimes has to challenge coworkers on the value of certain activations, or the language they use. "I joke at Cooley that one of the things that we're really good at here is using adjectives," he says. "When I say how was an event or what was a piece of content, they say it was amazing. It was awesome. It was excellent. And I don't mean to be flippant, but I was like, can you please tell me what 'amazing' or 'awesome' mean?" Today on Building Better CMOs, Matt and Greg talk about the "ongoing journey" of integrating data into a legacy business culture; how professional services firms and their partners can better communicate their value to clients; and why, in your career, "it's often good to take a step laterally down ... in order to get to the next step where you want to get to."

After barely making the Flames out of a rough preseason, Cooley has turned into arguably their best goalie and even earned himself a team-friendly deal, prompting the guys to debate just how real this breakout is. They get into whether the sample size is big enough to buy in, what his ceiling could be, and if the Flames may have quietly found something special in net.Video Link: https://youtu.be/mU4rxuMdjaU#nhl #nhlshorts #nhlplayoffs #nhlpredictions #nhlhockey #nhlpicks #stanleycup #stanleycupfinal #calgaryflames CHECK OUT OUR STUFF ⬇️BARN BURNER MERCHhttps://nationgear.ca/collections/shirts/FlamesnationBARN BURNER SHORTS https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj_bcGtvvo-cW2DHEDZ6dEO5ePDmlhZc9&si=jo8iNGxT4ImhS2Y8

Douglas Vincent Cooley is a predator caught in a Polk County, Florida investigation. At the time of the sting, Cooley had been living in or near Apopka, Florida. Shockingly, he worked at the Clay Springs Elementary after-school daycare in Apopka.  Cooley had been communicating with a decoy posing as a foster mother willing to sell her fifteen-year-old daughter for sex. After learning of the girl's age, Cooley asked if they were law enforcement. Assured that they were not, Cooley then stated that he had never "come across this opportunity before." He also specifically asked to confirm the girl's age as fifteen. He agreed to pay $100 for a half hour of sex with the minor girl, saying, "I just want to fuck her." Cooley arrived at the house and was immediately arrested by deputies. While being handcuffed, Cooley muttered to himself, "I'm done for." While being searched, Cooley repeatedly kept telling himself, "I'm so dumb." He was first interrogated by deputies then it was Chris' turn.
